Gold-Plated Games

Pretty decent week for Weeklong Deals, mostly leaning towards older and more obscure titles. The Last Door is a major stand-out though, an easy recommendation for literally any horror adventure fan. Also worth mentioning that the Thief franchise is on sale this week. While I haven’t officially reviewed it yet it’s one of my all-time favorite game franchises period, so definitely consider picking up the original trilogy at least.

Also, quick reminder that I’ll be streaming more Spooktober games tomorrow night at 9pm PST. We’ll be leading off with one that describes itself as “survival horror Pac-Man”, and if that doesn’t get you excited then I just don’t know what will.
